I know. But I still think your reaction was discouraging. :-p
already done it. But stop discouraging non-developers, *ESPECIALLY* translators, from contributing.
I'm not trying to discourage anyone from contributing.
I know you're not trying to do that, but I think you're doing it nonetheless.
I am trying to encourage people, where possible, to place things in the "usual location", since it means their contribution is *less likely* to go "ignored".
I know all that. But if the "usual location" is too complex to use, it is discouraging to know that the only (accepted) way to contribute is to learn a lot of stuff you're not really interested in (such as, for example, how to use BugZilla -- in all honesty, its UI is crap -- or even something like diff, a command-line tool with no UI at all).
